From something as simple as getting good directions to foreign weapons purchases or intelligence. Things get done when greenbacks are involved.

A whole different set of rules or standards apply.

amazing how people support guns being sent all over the world but try to send anything good to them and boy the right screams. But go ahead and arm the world...surely non of them are anti american right?

Oh we are armed the taliban when they were "freedom fighters" oops

You do realize that automatic assault rifles were essentially "taken away" in 1934, weren't you? For a civilian to own one a federal background check, $200 transfer tax, local law enforcement approval, and federal registration of the firearm take place, subject to inspection and review by the BATFE at any time. And that no new automatic firearms have been allowed to be owned by civilians (no additions to the registry) since 1986? Or have you gotten your knowledge of firearms laws form Hollywood?

perhaps you need to read than because I was speaking of alleged bribes by obama

secondly I said show proof that they are trying to take guns and you disputed.

But you can name call all you want, very good tactic when you cannot provide the information asked for.

the article calls out S&W, it has nothing to do with when the investigation started. Why did they call out S&W? this isn't exactly rocket science here, but then again there obviously aren't a lot of rocket scientists or even high school dropouts around at the moment...

and name calling? you can't do that here, so feel free to report any posts where I did. thanks, have a great day.

I will call the term assault weapons retarded, though. The logic is so flawed.

Be careful when using MSM sources on firearms issues, they know less about guns than the typical person does about quantum mechanics.
